Vol. 8 No. 1
RIVERSIDE, CALIFORNIA
October 1968
PROSPECTIVE STUDENT DAY SET FOR DEC. 6
DEGREE PROCESS
EXPLAINED BY
PRES. SIMMONS
"Since some have inquired about
the process used in selecting persons California Baptist College
wishes to honor with the honorary
degree, it occurs to me that former
students would also like to have
this information," says President
Loyed R. Simmons.
"No honorary doctorates were
conferred until the college received
full accreditation from the Western
Association of Colleges," he explained. "The first were given at
1962 Commencement but only after
the Board of Trustees had made a
study of practices and policies of
other colleges.
"We would like to stress that
nominations are acceptable from any
Southern Baptist. Appropriate forms
can be furnished so that the worthiness of the nominee can be established," explains Dr. Simmons.
Four points have been set up by
the Board of Trustees for checking
all nominations: (1) Personal a-
chievements in the fields of scholarship, business or the professions;
(2) Services rendered Southern Baptists and the cause of Christ; (3) Services rendered California Baptist
College and the Southern Baptist
General Convention of California;
(4) Other data which bear upon the
suitability of the bestowal of this
honor by CBC.
In addition, a limitation was set
of a maximum of three honorary degrees and four citations of achievement for one academic year. The
Committee to examine the qualifications of those nominated includes:
President of the Board of Christian
Higher Education; CBC President;
CBC Dean of the college; and two
members elected by the faculty.

1968 ENROLLMENT
BREAKS RECORD,
5% INCREASE
Once more California Baptist
College's enrollment figures have
exceeded the previous year with a
total of 660, an increase of 5 per
cent over the 626 figure for 1967-
68, reports Donald Hokett, acting
director of admissions.
Naturally California leads but
Texas with 22 follows in second
place for the 29 other states with
representatives. Tied for third place
in geographic distribution are Arizona, Missouri and Oklahoma. Hawaii and Oregon are in fourth and
fifth places.
Some 35 students have come from
17 foreign countries. Hong Kong
leads with 11 students. Others represented are: Bolivia, Brazil, Canada, Cuba, Finland, Ghana, India,
Israel, Japan, Korea, Lebanon, Liberia, Malaysia, Mexico, Nigeria,
Okinawa. Most of these students
have attended Southern Baptist mission schools.
CBC BENEFACTOR,
ANNIE GABRIEL,
DIES JULY 4
California Baptist College's great
benefactor, Miss Annie Gabriel, died
July 4 in a nursing home in San Bernardino at the age of 82. She had
been ill for several years.
In appreciation of her interest
and the generous gift of her estate,
the college library was named for
her. Her fine collection of books in
the fields of art, religion and literature was also given to the library
about 10 years ago. When the library
was newly decorated, a dedication
service and a chapel program titled,
"This Is Your Life, Miss Annie Gabriel" were held. Several times during the day, she said with controlled
emotions, "This is the highlight of
my life. Nothing else will ever be
greater than this day for me."
The 1961 Angelos was dedicated
to her.
